Your need to soak that fucker in some salt water or some blueboro soaking powder. You dont want to fuck with shit like that. You may even be in need of some mild antibiotics or IV antibiotics. Is it warm to the touch? Take a marker and outline the redness/ swellinf to make sure that it starts to go down. I saw a lot of that in seal training, i was a medic for my platoon. I also saw the flesh eating bacteria.....Take care of that asap

You need to get to the er now. Infections like that don,t get better without antibiotics. Go now!!! I got a mesquite spike in my leg dove hunting and didn't treat it for 2 days, 3 years later I still have health problems related to the late treatment. Good Luck

Next time you need to soak it in hot water mixed with bleach asap, as hot as you can stand it .The sheath of the stinger comes off sometimes inside the wound and can really fuck up your program.....as you know

Note to self: wear something on feet when launching.
Note to you:
Did you ever soak the wound in HOT HOT water? The toxin from rays and "skulpins" is a biotoxin which must be killed. SOP for treatment is soaking in really hot water to neutralize the poisson poison.
Surfdoc, witness?

Mikey, that works for jellyfish, because of the ammonia in your pee. No dice with rays.
